ENGLAND V BELIGIUM

England play Belgium in the World Cup on Thursday. Both are definitely going through to the next round, but which country comes first and second will decide who they play.
If they draw, it will be difficult to separate them. Fortunately, Fifa has rules to distinguish between two or more teams with the same number of points, the same goal difference and the same number of goals scored.
The first of these favours the winning team when the two played each other in the group stage. But if this game was a draw, these criteria are applied in the following order until the tie is broken:
goal difference in games between the relevant teams (this is clearly only relevant only when three or more teams have the same number of points)
goals scored in games between the relevant teams
disciplinary points – one for a yellow card, three for two yellow cards resulting in a red card, four for a straight red card and five for a straight red card given to a player who already has a yellow card
drawing of lots by the Fifa organising committee
The tie-breaker on discipline was introduced after the 2014 World Cup, presumably to make it less likely that lots would have to be drawn.
There was something of an outcry against the drawing of lots after it was used to decide whether Mali or Guinea would qualify for the quarter-finals of the African Cup of Nations in 2015.
The two countries drew all three of their group games 1-1 and there was no provision for fair play to be taken into account.
At a local hotel, the president of the Malian football federation, Baba Diarra, and the financial director of Guinea’s sports ministry, Amara Dabo, faced a bowl with two balls in it and were asked to choose one each.
Mali went first and found in its ball a number three, indicating that they would come third in the group and be eliminated. The other ball had a two in it.

In Kampala
Gen Salim Saleh met the former Inspector General of Police Gen Kale Kayihura, in detention at Makindye Military Barracks.
Gen Saleh, who is President Museveni’s brother and presidential adviser on Defence Affairs, met Gen Kayihura on Tuesday last week but it was kept under wraps. What the two Generals discussed was not readily established.
However, security sources said during the meeting, Gen Saleh asked Gen Kayihura to explain his alleged links with a “neighbouring state” and the spate of crimes, especially killings and kidnaps that surged to epidemic proportions in the country during his reign as police chief.
This information could not be independently verified as no other security official was willing to speak on the matter.
Sources also said the Security minister, Gen Elly Tumwine, and the Chief of Military Intelligence, Brig Abel Kandiho, had also met Gen Kayihura at Makindye before Gen Saleh went there.
The sources said Gen Kayihura had refused to talk to or be interrogated by junior army officers.
Gen Kayihura is currently detained at the residence of the commandant of Military Police at Makindye army barracks.
He was arrested from his country home in Kashagama in Lyantonde District on June 13.
The army spokesperson, Brig Richard Karemire, refused to comment on why Gen Kayihura has spent over two weeks in detention without trial.
When he was pressed further, he replied: “No comment”.
Sources say Gen Kayihura is only allowed to step at the verandah of the house where he is being detained but has access to television and newspapers.
“He watches television and he is also allowed to step outside and stand or sit at the verandah,” the source said.
Military sources say Gen Kayihura’s relatives take him food but are not allowed to talk to him in privacy.
Military guards inside and outside the detention house keep tight watch to ensure limited interaction with family or other relatives.
Last week, Gen Kayihura’s wife, Ms Angella Kayihura, said in a statement that the family had unfettered access to him after some people claimed the former police chief was being held incommunicado.
President Museveni sacked Gen Kayihura in March this year and elevated his deputy Mr Okoth Ochola to replace him.
Gen Kayihura had served for 13 years. The President later said the changes in the police leadership were intended to clean up the force which he said had been infiltrated by “weevils” (criminals).

In Kampala
Chairperson of the National Resistance Movement (NRM) Women’s League, Lydia Wanyoto has expressed pessimism that the 10 point action plan that President Yoweri Museveni pitched last week to address insecurity in the country, is not likely to be effective…at least not in the short run.
Mrs Wanyoto, who has lost two brothers to gunmen, said Museveni plan “only addresses symptoms” of Uganda’s currently security predicament.
Museveni, while addressing parliament last Wednesday announced a list of ten drastic measures, which he believes will help address the rampant cases of murders that recently rocked the nation, especially in the central region.
Among the measures, Museveni proposed motor vehicle tracking, banning of hoodies on motorbikes, eliminating bail and police bond for murder suspects, CCTV cameras in cities and highways and use of drones by security agencies.
But according to Mrs Wanyoto, Uganda’s insecurity is too big and complex a problem for the president’s plan.
“We are dealing with symptoms here,” she said while appearing on a radio talk show during the weekend.
According to Wanyoto, the evidence from the murder scenes of people like former police spokesmen Andrew Felix Kaweesi, and former Arua MP Ibrahim Abiriga clearly point to a high level of anger by the assailants.
This she said is where the president needs to start from, to address the problem.
“We have to go back to the basics and deal with what is causing people to be shot,” she noted.
“I went to the scene of Abiriga’s murder. If you look at the way they were shot, there was a lot of anger. The (assailants) hit their heads, the vehicle as mutilated with like 100 bullets. That’s not just about killing somebody; there is a message that they are trying to send.
“How can we live with people in the community who are so bitter and angry?” she wondered.
“Also where do they get the guns and bullets from? These guys have a high level of expertise. They studied Abiriga and targeted him and they hit the target hard. They didn’t just kill, they sent a statement. You can see a high level of emotion and anger.”
Wanyoto went on to narrate how she too lost two brothers in such shootings, who were not politicians; an indication that no one in Uganda is safe.
One of the brothers, she narrated, was a chemist, and another a health worker, working with TASO.
“These are nationals, who in their private capacities were running their families, and they were shot dead,” She said.
Using her influence as a key government figure, Wanyoto says, she tried to pursue the killers, and even recovered blood samples but because of broken security institutions and without a functioning analytical lab, the cases were closed.
“My home is just 2 kilometres from the Mbale High Court. At the court our case has closed but in our family that case cannot close. My brothers’ children and their wives are demanding. How can a case close when they have graves in their home?”
Wanyoto noted that President Museveni’s grand plan, while plausible, can only work in the long run.
“The points that the president raised are important but they have to be segmented in terms of the current, the intermediate and the future. What he raised is for the future but we need to deal with the now.”
The NRM Women’s leader suggested that government start by taking advantage of the oncoming village level elections, to strength security from the ground.
“It’s good that we are going to have elections; but if I had powers, we wouldn’t do these elections through voting. We would have village appointments of strong people that don’t need to be populist to manage the villages. It is important that we get the basics of village security, and we build from there,” she said.
